    YES we can ship to the US!🇺🇸 Most of our antiques and vintage items ship duty-free or with fees already included (DDP – Delivered Duty Paid). This means the price you see at checkout is usually the total you’ll pay. In rare cases (especially for Canadian-made items), U.S. customs may apply import fees. Buyers are responsible for any duties or taxes, but we always do our best to minimize or include them so your order arrives without surprises.

    FOR SALE ☞ Antique Oil Lamp – Frosted Glass Font with Embossed Reindeer & Snowflake Starburst

    DESCRIPTION ☞ This antique oil lamp features a frosted glass font with an embossed reindeer head and starburst pattern, giving it a unique winter wonderland appearance. The octagonal metal base is adorned with intricate floral and geometric designs, characteristic of the Victorian era. The brass burner is intact with an adjustable wick, and the lamp is topped with a clear glass chimney with a delicate beaded edge. This collectible lamp would make a stunning addition to any antique lighting collection or Christmas-inspired decor.

    DIMENSIONS ☞ (Approximate measurements) Total Height (with chimney): 18 inches Base Width: 4.25 inches Font Diameter: 4.5 inches

    CONDITION ☞ This lamp is in good antique condition, exhibiting minor wear consistent with its age. The metal base showcases a rich patina, and the frosted glass font remains in decent shape, with no significant dings, chips or cracks. Notably, there is an old repair on the font, where a bubble that formed in the glass at the time of manufacturing appears to have been addressed using a plaster or clay-like material. This type of repair is indicative of historical restoration techniques, adding to the lamp's unique character. The brass burner shows age-related tarnish but remains functional. The glass chimney is free of major damage, with only minor surface imperfections typical for antique glass.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do you accept returns?

    For EU & UK buyers: As required by consumer law, most online purchases can be cancelled within 14 days of delivery. Certain exceptions apply (antiques, collectibles, items sold “for parts/repair”). Buyer pays return shipping, and refunds are issued only after the item is received and verified in its original condition.

    For buyers outside the EU/UK (e.g. USA, Canada): All sales are considered final. Returns are not accepted except in cases of significant misrepresentation.

    Do you accept exchanges?

    No. All of our items are considered one-offs and unique so we can not offer exchanges at this time.

    Will I have to pay extra customs or duty fees if I’m in the U.S.?

    We ship all U.S. orders using the most reliable method available. Some items (especially antiques over 100 years old or U.S.-made goods) are tariff-exempt under current rules. For other items, we do our best to pre-pay duties and include them in the price (known as DDP — Delivered Duty Paid) so what you see at checkout is what you’ll pay.

    What does “DDP” mean?

    DDP stands for Delivered Duty Paid. It means we take care of the customs paperwork and fees on our end whenever possible. That way, your package clears the border smoothly and you won’t get a surprise bill on delivery.

    Are there any exceptions?

    Most antiques and U.S.-made vintage items ship duty-free. European pieces are usually covered by DDP (we pre-pay the duty and build it into the price). Canadian-made vintage can sometimes carry higher tariffs; in those rare cases, we’ll either adjust the listing price to reflect the duty or let you know up front if extra charges could apply. If you have any concerns regarding tariffs, please message us prior to purchase and we would be happy to do some research for you!

    What happens if customs does charge extra?

    We’re transparent about this from the start: buyers are responsible for any customs/import fees that may apply. That said, we always do our best to minimize the risk by using the right codes and carriers. If you have questions about a specific item, message us before checkout and we’ll give you an honest answer about what to expect.

    Why do some Canadian shops say “buyer is responsible for duty”?

    That’s Etsy’s default policy. We go a step further by explaining how duties work and when we can cover them. Our goal is to make your buying experience smooth and surprise-free.
